quick out of the way, i just experienced my first earthquake.  and it was AWESOME!  lulz.  i believe it was a 5.0 magnatude.  hopefully the next quake won’t be damaging.

now to cons.

still waiting to hear back from commissioners for my tira costume.  the main girl i’ve been waiting for has finally responded to me but has yet to give me a quote.  i don’t know if i should be freightened or what.  hopefully i’ll hear from her again soon.

it has come to my attention that auditions for metrocon is coming up.  first off, fire auditions??!  are you sure you want a bunch of anime nerds (no offense) playing with fire?  i’m a little scared..  i plan to watch this show and i don’t want to get my ass torched.  second, chess match..  *sigh*  i just hope they get a shit gally so i feel like i’ve done something good for the chess match.  oy.

lastly, i might volunteer for staffing at AX.  it seems like fun and i’ve done it before.  maybe the staffing will be a bit better than SOME cons i know of.  *cough*  here’re the benefits.  maybe someone else out there may want to join me?

it pains me… 29/12/2008

it pains me, but since i am without my sewing machine and because i just suck at sewing in general (though my mai and ayane costumes were SICK!), i think i’m actually going to give in and commission a costume.  ugghh…  it hurts…  i’m getting quotes from two commissioners right now and i’m hoping it doesn’t kill me financially.

if i do commission this costume, and it looks amazing and absolutely adorable, that means all of you need to come to california to see me sport off the costume at a con.  xD

i have done my damnedest to avoid anything and EVERYTHING metrocon (minusing the peeps because YOU ARE MY HOMMEDAWGS!).  why?  so i can save myself from regretting not being able to attend this year.

well i cracked.

totally went to metrocon’s website.  WTF?!!  GREG CIPES?!  you let him go last year and decided now was the best time to have him?!  WTF times 9 thousand!!!…and one!!!!  i have been wanting to meet that man since i was a wee little teen!  he was what helped me stay a vegitarian!  it was my dream to have little vegan babies with him!![/overreacting]  and now…UUUGGGHHH!!!

and dave stanworth from snafu?!  F***************CCCCCCKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!  WHAT NEXT?!  DAVID HAYTER?!!  *cries*

someone…please…send me to florida to meet these people…

ahhh!!!  and seeing all the avatar goodness that will be taking place there too?!  I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A PART OF THAT!!!  but nooooooooooo!!!  i had to go to ALASKA to see the mooses and the mountains!  *cries*  there’s always a next year right…?  NO!  gahh!!  *bangs head against floor*  THE MEDICINE!!![/grey fox]

for all you that are going, tell greg cipes i love him and want to go surfing with him while we eat vegan chik’n burgers together…

no.  for serious though.  tell greg cipes about me.  if i can’t meet him, he will DAMN well know that i want to and that i exist.

also, if someone can record the chess match, super hero stunt show, and avatar shows (yes.  tape them ALL) and send it to me, i’d really appreciate it.
